 Hard
Rock Hotel Casino
Hotel Description
Arguably one of the hippest joints in town, the Hard Rock Hotel houses
some of Vegas' hottest entertainment and restaurants.
The "world's first rock 'n' roll hotel and casino" is many things,
but one you would never expect: tasteful. Sure, the main attraction is
the memorabilia -- signed guitars, full outfits of clothing and other
items directly from the closets of rock's biggest and brightest. But even
without those items, the Hard Rock boasts dozens of things that make it
unique.
The Hard Rock's concept may be new, but the medium-size tower, hardwood
floors and lush pool area evoke Vegas past -- back when Sin City was a
place for young hipsters (we don't mean preschoolers) to stay and play.
The circular casino feels more like a large, spacious lounge than a cavernous
gambling warehouse. Dining runs the gamut -- from cosmopolitan (Simon,
Nobu) to loud and fast (Mr. Lucky's 24/7, The Pink Taco) -- with restaurants
having little in common from one menu to the next save great food and
service.
Rooms are spacious and handsomely decorated. A pair of lounges host a
succession of pretty people, internationalists and genuine rock stars
nightly. A 1,200-capacity showroom, The Joint, has seen everyone from
Steely Dan to The Ramones take the stage. The pool area is lush beyond
belief. And no other casino in the world could boast slot machines bearing
the likenesses of Jimi Hendrix and Sid Vicious.
Truly a Vegas original, the Hard Rock must be seen -- and heard -- to
be believed.
